I agree with you on the build quality, but in terms of sound, I find the FiiO JD1 to sound better. They may not be the most balanced, but they're fun to listen to. I also own the 7Hz Salnotes Zero, Moondrop Chu 2, Tangzu Wan’er SG2, and KZ Castor, but the JD1 still stands out in my daily use. Of course, audio preferences are subjective—thanks for sharing yours! 😊

Lots of BUDGET options, I'm currently loving a pair of £10 (Amazon)FiiO JD10 USB C IEMs, they have built in tuning modes so I saves faffing around with your player. They also do the 3.5mm version of your player doesn't support usb audio. I also have a pair of KZ EDX PRO IEMs which are good, they're even better now I've switched the 3.5mm cable for an upgraded silver usb c cable 👍🏼 So check the FiiO & KZ ranges, not all of us can afford £200 on a pair of ear candy 😉 oh and I listened to everything from classical to blues, k-pop to metal, dance to jazz 😂 quite eclectic

Never buy things for a specific purpose from Amazon that's a general store which obtains products from various middle men... Should have researched before buying... Try from headphonezone or the audio store... Concept kart has worked fine for me but there is too much controversy online so i would recommend to stay away from it for a time being... Genuinely they had a good pre sale service idk about post sale... Also next time if want to try one of these for the budgets: 1. Fiio jd10 (cheapest 900₹) (current use) 2. Truthear gate 3. 7HZ x Crinacle Zero: 2 4. kiwi ear belle (current use) 5. Kefine Klean 6. Moondrop LANII (5.5k₹) 7. Fiio jt1 (wired headphones) (current use) 8. 1Mii AI Y8+ (bluetooth)

The build quality is shit in 1 months the paint is gone and after 3 months the 2 pin female connector on my left iem broke. As it broke physically the warranty does not claim. And for long listening sessions my ears hurt. Now I got the moondrop chu II i am in love with the build quality and sound is nice too only con is no mic.

Jd1 is tricky, it's really hard to even up it's upper midrange. I would skip it.

Just go for these! Fiio jd1 x headphonezone is also a bass monster, the best bass in the segment!

There is a budget iem by Fiio called JD10 it's cost less than $10. I bought it it's quite good for it's price and you can change it's cable too.
